I Pioneered Scientific Magic

Aurora and Harof, much like Victorio, were engrossed in this intricate experiment measuring atomic mass.

The minuteness of elements was beyond their comprehension. A single drop of water contains tens of thousands, even millions of water elements, composed of the basic elements hydrogen and oxygen. It could only be described as unbelievably minuscule!

Many wizards might doubt the existence of such elements if not for their ability to perceive them through magic.

Measuring the volume and weight of such minuscule elements was nearly impossible, yet Bohr managed to turn the impossible into possible!

Previously, Lynn used a similar experiment while calculating constants. They amplified the imperceptible gravitational interference between two iron spheres using light, precisely calculating it!

This was entirely feasible!

Just as they were marveling, Isaac Newton nearby seemed somewhat impatient.

"You surely have more to discuss today, Bohr? These superficial matters need no further mention!" he remarked.

"Superficial..." Victorio's expression turned peculiar, unable to counter because they hadn't even calculated these superficial matters yet!

In Victorio's mind echoed the words someone once said upon arriving in the land of wizards.

"The magical theories in the land of wizards are outdated!"

Victorio exchanged a glance with Aurora, both sharing a bitter smile.

Harof shook his head; he had warned earlier about the necessity for discretion here, to avoid exposing their lack of knowledge...

Helplessly, the trio looked to Bohr, intensely curious about the purpose behind his summoning.

"I certainly have more to share!" Bohr followed Isaac's lead, quite arrogantly. "In fact, I'm preparing to rank all the atoms!"

With a snap of Bohr's fingers, a massive chart appeared before them.

The chart was arranged in rows and columns, devoid of any numbers or symbols. Just an empty grid.

"I haven't completed this chart because it lacks a few crucial factors, which might affect their sequence. I hope you all can help me perfect it!" Bohr earnestly requested.

"Bohr, don't you already have a clear understanding of elements?" Victorio asked, puzzled.

If someone could calculate the mass of elements, their volume shouldn't be an exception. Coupled with concepts like density and molecular weight, it practically turned the elements upside down!

"No one dares claim complete knowledge of everything about atoms, myself included!" Bohr shook his head, sighing.

"While I've delved into some superficial studies of atoms, there's still one aspect I haven't completely grasped—the structure of atoms!"

"Structure? You mean the shape of elements?" Aurora suddenly inquired.

"No, the internal structure!" Bohr emphasized. "I believe atoms are divisible!"

Bohr's words undoubtedly challenged the mainstream magical theory in the land of wizards, where every wizard is taught that elements constitute the fundamental substance of the entire world! The argument of indivisible elements has been repeatedly proven through experiments! Even at temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees, collisions between elements, they remained as steadfast as ever! Even when cutting through substances, the elements within remained unscathed. "Element Controller" Althok even concluded that elements repelled each other, maintaining a minimum distance between them.

Some wizards even believed that elements were the hardest substance in this world, indestructible.

However, given Bohr's brilliant calculation of atoms, turning the impossible into possible, the trio refrained from hastily refuting. All they could do was listen to these legendary figures from the Secret Arts Society, discussing whether the internal structure of atoms resembled 'solid spheres,' 'raisins,' or 'watermelons'...

These theories about atomic structure were not merely conjectures; they were logically consistent and had some real basis. Bohr even conducted experiments to determine if the interior of atoms was solid or hollow.

At this moment, Victorio and Aurora deeply empathized with Harof's initial feelings when he first attended such discussions.

It felt akin to an apprentice wizard mingling among seasoned wizards discussing how to mimic elements with magic—utter bewilderment.

Facing their frequent inquiries, Victorio broke into a sweat, barely managing to fumble through a few vague responses.

His only relief was that Bohr and others also seemed not to have fully understood the internal structure of atoms. Presently, these theories were still in the stage of theoretical refinement, lacking substantial evidence...

This was the aim of this discussion—to explore the essence of atoms and, based on their characteristics, create a ranking table of elements!

If successful, undoubtedly, this "Element Ranking Table" would become the foundation of the entire magical system! It meant that wizards' understanding and application of elements would advance to an entirely new level!

But could atoms truly be divided? And what kind of power could split an atom...

Victorio delved into deep contemplation. The other councilor, Althok, had made similar conjectures, attempting to research more microscopic realms. Whether successful or not was unknown, as he seemed to have gone mad, obsessively muttering about some elemental specters daily, leaving behind manuscripts filled with nonsense.

It was due to this that they had halted experiments and research on elements... but now it seemed necessary to resume.

This discussion about the properties and internal structure of atoms lasted for over an hour. Several possible models were magically represented in the void, broadening Harof, Aurora, and Victorio's perspectives.

Just as the discussion was about to conclude, Aurora stepped forward and got to the heart of the matter.

"Dear colleagues, I believe you're somewhat aware of the recent conflict between the Holy Church and the Kingdom, aren't you?"

"We've heard some rumors," Einstein, seated to the left, all his hair white, nodded. Then, he continued, "Haven't you won this battle, driving the Church's punitive forces out of the Kingdom?"

Victory?

Harof shook his head in resignation. It wasn't so much a victory as it was their sheer luck in escaping with their lives!
